I like AO but that was a joke.

pathetic

Overeem should be fighting the Top 3 or 4 HWs outside the UFC, not padding his record with squash matches.

As others have said, this was pathetic. Overeem should be embarrassed that he is fighting chumps like this at the peak of his career. Have a little bit more self pride. I’ll be curius to see if he can pass a drug test if and when he ever fights state side again. Because I’m a huge skeptic.

I can never understand the hate on AO. This fight was just a warm-up plus this was a huge event put on by his home gym for their anniversary event.
He has stated numerous times his commitments to K-1 for the 2009 year and next year will be focused on Strikeforce. I am excited to see him in the K-1 GP this year.

Well i think it's safe to say that

With this win Overeem deserves to stay in the top 5 in the HW division, I’m wondering who he will be fighting next, maybe a guy with one arm or a blind person? Should be fun to watch.

He should start calling out Joyce Gracie.
